I got my generator out yesterday and gassed it up and let it run for awhile. I still hope the power doesn't go out but I'm ready. Good luck to you.

>You’re the one steadfastly denying that the poor design has anything to do with why so many people happen to crash into this one pole.

It absolutely is perfect! That pole is a local folk hero at this point. It's taking dangerous drivers out, one by one, making the roads (at least temporarily) safer for the rest of us, and hopefully giving them a humbling lesson they won't soon forget about paying attention to what they're doing when driving.

>I’ve said multiple times that human error is mostly to blame.

This is well beyond the ordinary types of human error that lead to typical parking lot mishaps. These people are turning left so ridiculously early that, not only are they missing the correct lane, but they're also missing the oncoming lane.

The problem is less that they don't realize where that pole is, and more that they have lost track of where the actual road is that they're supposed to be driving on. They'd be on the sidewalk or in the ditch if this were a public road instead of a parking lot! That pole is not obscured by the A-pillar blind spot at any point where it makes sense to begin turning your steering wheel to the left to go around that corner. And they're not just scraping it because they get a little too close; they're mostly smashing into it head on! That one guy even managed to flip his vehicle over. How dangerously fast must he have been going in a congested parking lot to manage that‽

I've driven through that entrance and made that very left turn many times. It's blatantly obvious what path you need to take to make that left if you have the most basic understanding of how cars steer, and have even a small amount of spatial awareness.

>Good luck on your crusade to make everyone a perfectly attentive driver. Meanwhile I’ll continue to operate in the real world.

The crusade isn't to make everyone a good driver, but to get the bad ones on the bus, or some other form of public transit, instead. Our country made a grave mistake when it built all of its infrastructure around the assumption that everyone should drive their own private cars, and its going to take generations of work to undo that foolishness.

I had an experience where I frost bit my toes snowboarding in 1995, stupid stupid me, got home at 10 pm ran a hot bath and stuck my feet in.. and felt the worst pain of my life.. what an idiot I am.

When it's 18 below and you tell friends down south"it's a little chilly out today."

Per hour including travel, parts runs etc. like a mechanic… add OT/ call fees and that adds up! HOWEVER Folks deserve to be covered for running a good proper business and stepping up to help us in emergencies at all hours. Thank you!!

Fuck is a part of your vocabulary and not a curse word

super festive! A month too late, but i like it!

This has potential. Millions of Americans can't afford houses right now and if you can 3d print one with lessan hours needed and using wood residuals rather than premo lumber than I bet this could be done much cheaper than a typical house build

You are completely disgusted by the general panic over a few below zero days in February.

Nice! My school district won't do that, instead they messaged asking us to wait outside for the kids to be dropped off 🤔

Tyvek house wrap is a permanent exterior solution...

You only buy lobsters from “a guy”.

Thanks, it has it's positives and negatives

Cold weather is the best for ice cream because it won’t melt.

We don't kink shame here. You're in a safe space.

You’ve run your AC and your Heat on the same day.

Literally just today broke out the jacket for the winter lol

won't be the first time I've snuggled up with my battery, damn sure enough won't be the last, tell u what

What other housing?

Dang. They're also good, though, so I'm ok with that. That's another good I didn't try until I came here. Maine had really expanded my culinary experiences.

No. Only rutabagas for you.

I never even tried turnips before I moved to Maine and they're really good. Am I a Mainer yet?

Time to roll the cahr windows up...

Heck yes guy
